Florida Woman is incapacitated at traffic light: it was either a retiree with a health problem, or meth was involved.

These trucks will need absolutely *huge* hydrogen tanks.
FWIW, the Mirai has a 122 liter tank, which I’d ballpark gives the same range as a gas tank half the volume in an equivalently efficient car.

Of course, in real life, hydrogen is a fossil fuel because it is derived from natural gas.
In the fusion-powered future of from the 1960's dreams, hydrogen is a clean fuel that is made from water and only pollutes water.

We would prefer a sporty car, but are open to an off-roader.

I think the business opportunity of “we’re starting an EV company to make pickups / vans” has passed by. GM, Ford, VW, and Geely have basically crossed the finish line on this already.

Time for deconvolution!  At least this time it was planned, unlike the original data from Hubble.

Have you been living under a rock (with respect to automotive news) for the last 2-3 years?  Lordstown Motors has been pretty prominent since before Trump helped them announce their pickup back in 2020...

But it was handmade! That’s got to be worth a *lot* /s

I guess that once you build a 4WD EV with a big battery, it’s relatively cheap to make it accelerate fast plus add a nice interior for $$,$$$ profit. Building an EV with a small enough battery to be affordable, but also have decent range is much harder.

Obligatory

By the time your <$85K Lucid is delivered, the Mustang Mach E will be back down to MSRP.

Yeah a 16 year old from a wealthy family should be driving a newish Volvo, Accord, or other safe sedan (with base level engine). Bonus points for somehow disabling all passenger seats to keep them from getting distracted. Maybe unlock the passenger seats ~18 or so, and high horsepower after college :)

From what I’ve seen this vehicle was very much targeted at the high end of the market, and not anywhere near the Mustang, Pontiac Sunbird, or Miata. Of course, GM did have a hard time convincing people that this was a worthy competitor to a 1990 Mercedes Benz 500SL, which also had a base price of around $28k.

It sure would be easier to buy a Polestar if it was available thru the Volvo dealer network. I think Polestar is only in ~15 cities across the entire US. Volvo has ~290 dealers in the US.

Blatant negligence on the employer (dealer). The employer is responsible for maintaining safe working conditions and properly trained employees. The employer’s gross negligence killed someone, so the employer should be punished. They should have insurance for this type of thing, so in the end it’ll just be their…

I think geothermal sounds really cool, but I think it also has an installation cost in the $30K range. At least it is much cheaper to run after installation, though.

Yeah it’s generally not worth replacing a commuter appliance that runs well, especially at today’s prices!!

The screenshot of the Staley Coach with the marble flooring and wrinkly leather sofas looks like a very narrow waiting room at a high-end surgeon’s office. How in the world is that a comfortable place to spend time?

On the topic of NISMO+EV... let me clarify that quote:
